O Wondrous Sight, O Vision Fair

Author: J. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: Prophets Lyrics: 1 O wondrous sight, O vision fair of glory that the church shall share, which Christ upon the mountain shows, where brighter than the sun he glows! 2 From age to age the tale declares how with the three disciples there, where Moses and Elijah meet, the Lord holds converse high and sweet. 3 The law and prophets there have place, two chosen witnesses of grace; the Father’s voice from out the cloud proclaims his only Son aloud. 4 With shining face and bright array Christ deigns to manifest today what glory shall be theirs above who joy in God with perfect love. 5 And faithful hearts are raised on high by this great vision’s mystery, for which in joyful strains we raise the voice of prayer, the hymn of praise.

Schaeffer, 1813-96 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Beware False Prophets First Line: Come, O come, Thou quick'ning Spirit Lyrics: 1 Come, oh, come, Thou quick'ning Spirit, God from all eternity! May Thy power never fail us; Dwell within us constantly. Then shall truth and life and light Banish all the gloom of night. 2 Grant our hearts in fullest measure Wisdom, counsel, purity, That they ever may be seeking Only that which pleaseth Thee. Let Thy knowledge spread and grow, Working error's overthrow. 3 Show us, Lord, the path of blessing; When we trespass on our way, Cast, O Lord, our sins behind Thee And be with us day by day. Should we stray, O Lord, recall; Work repentance when we fall. 4 With our spirit bear Thou witness That we are the sons of God Who rely upon Him solely When we pass beneath the rod; For we know, as children should, That the cross is for our good. 5 Prompt us, Lord, to come before Him With a childlike heart to pray; Sigh in us, O Holy Spirit, When we know not what to say. Then our prayer is not in vain, And our faith new strength shall gain. 6 If our soul can find no comfort And despondency grows strong That the heart cries out in anguish: "O my God, how long, how long?" Comfort then the aching breast, Grant it courage, patience, rest. 7 Holy Spirit, strong and mighty, Thou who makest all things new, Make Thy work within us perfect And the evil foe subdue. Grant us weapons for the strife And with vict'ry crown our life. 8 Guard, O God, our faith forever; Let not Satan, death, or shame Ever part us from our Savior; "Lord our Refuge" is Thy name. Though our flesh cry ever: Nay! Be Thy Word to us still Yea! 9 And when life's frail thread is breaking, Then assure us more and more, As the heirs of life unending, Of the glory there in store, Glory never yet expressed, Glory of the saints at rest.
